If you get in touch with this family again, she is welcome to reach out to me or I can meet with her at your office if she will be there again at a scheduled time. Child Care Resources is able to provide help finding and paying for childcare, and we also have bus tickets, diapers, and wipes.

I have a client whom is homeless and is sleeping on the streets with her 5 month old baby boy. I am giving her a temp bus pass to get to the salvation army. Is there any where else she can get help. She has no transportation or phone. She will be in the office for another 10 -15 minutes.
